As announced on Facebook on April 3rd, we will ending all activities as of May 31st, 2020.

In 2021, I (Brian) retire from serving our country for a combined 38 years of military and civil service government dedication.  Now we make the difficult decision to move onto another chapter of our lives.  In mid-2021 we will be moving out of the RGV.  This is definitely one of those “bitter-sweet” decisions and moves.  We will now invest time back into ourselves, our children, and grandchildren.  THANK YOU FOR THE MEMORIES!!
